I think political posts can be polarizing the same as when Obummer was in office and some were gagging and holding on but reluctant to say much. It's good we're more vocal now - I know so many like poster in another topic today (sorry/another post/UK) that gave up/didn't even bother to vote until 4 yrs. ago. Everyone needs hope.
We do learn from one another re/politics (like religion) and I think this site is great for facts as long as we don't blow up and take time (not easy) to read. I'm unfamiliar with Reddit unless someone links.
